variety.comAna de Armas is out for revenge in the first trailer for “Ballerina,” the “John Wick” spinoff set to release on June 6, 2025.
In the action thriller, de Armas plays Rooney, a Ruska Roman ballerina seeking retribution against a group of hitmen who murdered her family. “Ballerina” takes place in between the events of “John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum” and “John Wick: Chapter 4,” spotlighting the female assassin who made only a brief appearance in the third “Wick” movie and was originally played by Unity Phelan.
The trailer shows the origins of de Armas’ Rooney, who’s on her own quest for vengeance. She kicks plenty of ass, slices someone’s neck with an ice skate and douses a flamethrower with a high-powered hose.
At the end of the trailer, she even meets Baba Yaga himself, John Wick. “Ballerina” will also feature franchise leader Keanu Reeves as Wick.
